Cash Box ’80’s Pop Charts

New Record Research book will be published in July of
Cash Box's Pop charts of the 1980's. However, if you
view the sample pages, the first chart is R&B!

Can't wait for this book, Paul?

Speaking of Record Research books, does anyone remember what was in this book exactly:
1960s Cream of the Pop

Gordon, the Cream of the Pop book was a listing of Top 10
hits for each decade (1950s and 1960s) by artist. They
were custom printed, stapled booklets. We no longer
offer them for sale. The current Whitburn Book of Top 10
Hits is a much more comprehensive product.

So if I understand you correctly, Paul, there's nothing in the Cream of the Pop books that isn't in the current Whitburn Book of Top 10 Hits. Is that the case?

Thanks Paul. Which of the 3 main companies (BB, RW, CB) were included in the Cream of the Pop top 10 book of the '60s?

BTW, I mentioned these 4 suggestions to you on the phone the other day but thought I'd mention them here, so that people can know this might be under consideration. (I know you'd still have some convincing to do - to Joel - I'm curious if anyone else here would like any of these):

* R&R Weekly Pop Charts - a '70s volume & '80s volume
* Billboard Pop Albums Charts 1970s (weekly charts) (1965-1969 exists)
* Across the Charts: 70s (pop, AC, country & R&B peaks) (a 1960s volume exists)
* Billboard Adult Pop Songs beyond 2006 (the last volume is almost 14 years old)
